Forsyth Creek Week March 15-22, 2014

Forsyth Creek Week is a full week of fun, educational and hands-on opportunities to discover, explore, and help our local waterways.

Forsyth County Parks and Recreation will be participating in Forsyth Creek Week. Forsyth County residents can participate in kayak fishing demonstrations, creek crawls, creek education programs, and Audubon bird walks at Tanglewood Park.

Creek Week’s goal is to connect Forsyth County residents with our local waterways through a variety of activities. This week-long observance will provide opportunities for them to discover and explore local streams through educational programs, recreational activities, and a volunteer service project. The objective of all of these opportunities is to help residents learn more about their own connections and impacts on our local waterways.

Forsyth Creek Week is a county-wide initiative organized by the City of Winston-Salem Stormwater/Erosion Control Division, Forsyth County Parks & Recreation, Forsyth County Extension Service, Town of Kernersville, Village of Clemmons, the Audubon Society, Forsyth County Environmental Assistance and Protection, Forsyth County Public Libraries, the Gateway Environmental Initiative, Keep Winston-Salem Beautiful, Old Salem Museums & Gardens, the Sierra Club, Winston-Salem Sustainability Resource Center, and the Yadkin Riverkeeper.
